The Uruguayan technician confirmed the presence of an energy that moved through the atmosphere and the Bishop and his team of exorcists began to exorcise the house, holding up crosses and orating from old Lutheran texts.

In the video, one assistant also lights incense, which fills the room with smoke as the bishop’s mantra-like chants become more fervent.

The ceremony was paused on two occasions to reassure family members, who were in a state of distress in the next room.

The bishop happily announced an hour later that their spooky otherworldly friends had moved on, as members of the family whispered: "Thank you Manuel, thank you Manuel."

Farias, who checked that the family phones had not been tinkered with, said: "I have never worked with an exorcist before, it's definitely interesting to say the least."
